It’s unclear who the Pirates could be targeting. They already have an All-Star closer with Mark Melancon and a top set-up man with Tony Watson, so don’t look for someone like Aroldis Chapman, Jonathan Papelbon, Francisco Rodriguez, or Craig Kimbrel to end up in Pittsburgh. However, names like Tyler Clippard, Joaquin Benoit, Steve Cishek, and Jim Johnson could make some sense.

Entering tonight’s action, Pirates relievers ranked third in the majors with a 2.50 ERA. It never hurts to look for ways to improve, though.
